Special Exhibits
Bob the Builder™ - Project: Build It
Closes April 22, 2007
 Enter a fun-filled world where Bob the Builder™ and his Can-Do Crew work as a team to get the job done and build a community while learning the three R’s: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Families will enjoy time in Sunflower Valley, where children can practice their own fixing with hands-on activities inspired from the TPT animated show. Kids can repair a sink in Bob the Builder’s mobile home and building workshop, drive their favorite machine, operate kid-friendly versions of a drill press and circular saw, design a blueprint, and pump water through Farmer Pickle’s water pump.

Bob the Builder™ - Project: Build It presented by Delta Faucet, produced by HIT Entertainment and The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis. Locally sponsored by Pulte Homes. Promotional support by Star Tribune.

Raceways
February 17 – May 13, 2007
Minnesota Children’s Museum calls all Isaac Newtons to come discover the mystery of simple physics through a variety of fun, challenging activities and games at the Raceways exhibit. This exhibit allows children to learn about velocity, gravity, friction and more through sending golf balls on a looping, rolling, spinning, colliding race down roller coaster ramps. Get ready to race and roll, because the entire family will have a ball playing with gravity, energy and motion in Raceways.
